So this is my issue when I try to launch JA, can we fix this before I have to go through the trouble of reinstalling and getting JA+ and all that nonsense.

Thank you!

Basically i had this problem and there was a few fixes i remember:

1) Update your gfx card to the latest driver - This is the most likely and should work

2) If your on vista or such, run as adminstrator - set it in properties

3) try deleting certain PK3s such as sme skins, some of these can cause troubles especially if you have many of them

4) Reinstall the game - Just save your custom PK3s into a .zip and then clean reinstall

[Solitaire]

If I ever had this problem, I would:

 

1. Clean out my base and remove any recently added .pk3's, and take out anything unnecessary. (But from looking at your base, it's pretty empty)

2. Check that 1.01 patch has been applied.

3. Run as Administrator (if on Vista or 7)

4. Updating driver can be done, but when I got this error, that wasn't necessary.

5. Run JA:MP in safe mode (if you don't already)

opengl is a video display driver that comes with your video card. it either needs updating or is corrupt or both. fix it or buy a new one.

[Nikos]

Woah jeez. Don't reinstall the game just for that. Update your video drivers or re-install them altogether and you'll be good to go.

[Reptar]

Yeah, I've been prolonging restarting my computer, otherwise all my drivers are updated.

[Reptar]

It has different parts that vary in age, so I dunno.
